Your avatar
Skills, attributes, professions and profession levels: how your avatar grows, and what that growth is actually worth.
- How skills work There are no character levels. Your avatar has many individual skills, gained by doing the thing they apply to, and they never reset.
- Professions and profession levels Professions are derived from your skills and expressed as levels. They decide how well you use a piece of equipment, and they are the number that actually gates your progress.
- Attributes The handful of underlying attributes every avatar has, what they affect, and why they rise so slowly.
- The codex A progression track that rewards skills for killing a given number of each creature type, and the main reason hunters pick one creature and stay on it.
- Mind Force The game's equivalent of magic: chips powered by Mind Essence that teleport, heal, attack and more, with their own professions and their own economics.
- Skill chips and transfers Skills can be extracted from an avatar, sold and implanted into another one. The transfer is lossy, and the market is thinner than people expect.
